Connecting Pixhawk to an arduino mega

Question

I'm working on building a wireless telemetry communication using NRF24L01 and arduino mega for Pixhawk 2.4.8 . The flight controller receives requests for sharing its data but does not respond. I am reaching out to seek guidance on extracting data from Pixhawk2.4.8

Code:

#include <mavlink.h>

void setup() {
  Serial2.begin(57600); //RXTX from Pixhawk (Port 16,17 Arduino Mega)
  Serial.begin(57600); //Main serial port for console output

request_datastream();

}

void loop() {

MavLink_receive();

}

//function called by arduino to read any MAVlink messages sent by serial communication from flight controller to arduino
void MavLink_receive()
  { 
    //Serial.println("lestening...");
  mavlink_message_t msg;
  mavlink_status_t status;
  

  while(Serial2.available())
  {
    uint8_t c= Serial2.read();
    Serial.print(c);
    //Get new message
    if(mavlink_parse_char(MAVLINK_COMM_0, c, &msg, &status))
    {
      Serial.println("getting message");
         
    //Handle new message from autopilot
      switch(msg.msgid)
      {

        case MAVLINK_MSG_ID_GPS_RAW_INT:
      {
        mavlink_gps_raw_int_t packet;
        mavlink_msg_gps_raw_int_decode(&msg, &packet);
        
        Serial.print("\nGPS Fix: ");Serial.println(packet.fix_type);
        Serial.print("GPS Latitude: ");Serial.println(packet.lat);
        Serial.print("GPS Longitude: ");Serial.println(packet.lon);
        Serial.print("GPS Speed: ");Serial.println(packet.vel);
        Serial.print("Sats Visible: ");Serial.println(packet.satellites_visible);
       
      }
      break;

      }
    }
  }
}

void request_datastream() {
//Request Data from Pixhawk
  uint8_t _system_id = 255; // id of computer which is sending the command (ground control software has id of 255)
  uint8_t _component_id = 2; // seems like it can be any # except the number of what Pixhawk sys_id is
  uint8_t _target_system = 1; // Id # of Pixhawk (should be 1)
  uint8_t _target_component = 0; // Target component, 0 = all (seems to work with 0 or 1
  uint8_t _req_stream_id = MAV_DATA_STREAM_ALL;
  uint16_t _req_message_rate = 0x05; //number of times per second to request the data in hex
  uint8_t _start_stop = 1; //1 = start, 0 = stop

// STREAMS that can be requested

  // Initialize the required buffers
  mavlink_message_t msg;
  uint8_t buf[MAVLINK_MAX_PACKET_LEN];

  // Pack the message
  mavlink_msg_request_data_stream_pack(_system_id, _component_id, &msg, _target_system, _target_component, _req_stream_id, _req_message_rate, _start_stop);

  Serial.println("send request");
}

I connected the Pixhawk to Mission Planner to verify the functionality of the GPS. However, the GPS module is unable to acquire a fix, leading to inaccurate position information. Additionally, I attempted another code for uploading a waypoint and interfacing the Pixhawk with an Arduino, but it also did not work.
